Leslie Jones was actually holding back vomit in this week's SNL
James Franco’s fourth go at hosting Saturday Night Live this past weekend marked one of the show’s better turns in an uneven season, but one sketch was an unmitigated disaster (and not one that would require an “artist” to pull off). In it, Franco plays an enthusiastic Bloomingdale’s gift wrapper who can’t stop bleeding all over the presents (and those getting them wrapped). As we wrote in our recap of the episode, Franco “can’t keep himself from laughing at the carnage and there’s no comic discipline at work in the deployment.” We also noted the “jarringly realistic” reactions Leslie Jones was having to it all. Turns out there was a reason for that—she was truly on the verge of blowing chunks everywhere.
